Title:
METHOD OF SIMULTANEOUSLY MEASURING A PLURAL NUMBER OF CELL RESPONSES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/040117
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
[PROBLEMS] To provide a method whereby the states of a large number of cells held on a chip (for example, the reactivities of lymphocytes to an antigen stimulation) can be simultaneously measured and the states of the individual cells can be understood. [MEANS FOR SOLVING PROBLEMS] A method of measuring cell states which comprises independently holding a plural number of cells at a plural number of positions on a cell chip, detecting the fluorescence from at least a part of the a plural number of positions by using an image sensor, recording the intensities of the fluorescence thus detected for each of the positions, and indicating the fluorescent intensities or data converted from the fluorescent intensities thus recorded. At least the detection and recording as described above are repeated with the passage of time.
